Vøringfoss Hotel

Fantastisk rom med badekar på badet og en nydelig utsikt! God frokost i en veldig fin restaurant med mange valg. Hyggelig folk! Fantastic room with a bathtub in the bathroom and a lovely view! Good breakfast in a very nice restaurant with many choices. Nice people!

First, the location is beautiful. The hotel has that old time feel where you can imagine wealthy Edwardian ladies visiting the hotel and feeling very superior. The dining room looks out over a lawn and lake that just adds to this feeling. The town surrounding it is cute (with a great bakery/chocolate shop) and there's some hiking trails that are beautiful. The breakfast is decent. Not the best we've had in Norway but certainly not the worst. The rooms are LARGE. At least, our family room was. Huge floor plan with plenty of room for five people to stretch out. Now for the bad: The Edwardian feel continues into the elevator which is slow and small. It's easier to just take the stairs. There's often linen carts in the hallways -- I guess there's few places to store them. The bed was CREAKY. Like, if I moved the slightest bit, it groaned as if it were about to collapse. I didn't get good sleep because of it. And I was in the "master bed." The other beds weren't as loud and my kids didn't complain about their comfort but they were also severely jet lagged. I'd suggest you skip dinner here but there's just not many other places to eat either. We sat and then learned it was a buffet. Ok, fine. A buffet that cost roughly $65 a person. Yikes. And the buffet was pretty good but not that value...not even in Norway. Would I come back? Yes. The views in the area are great. But I'd really look elsewhere to eat.

Stayed here for one night and would loved to have stayed longer. The hotel has a lovely setting right on the fjord edge. There is a good sized carpark but the hotel was busy and we were in the over flow to the right. Check in was smooth and efficient and the reception gentleman was helpful and pleasant. Our room was located at the front of the hotel and we looked out towards the town and mountains. The room was clean and comfortable with everything you needed. There was a wedding in the hotel so it was quite busy but the buffet breakfast was plentiful and delicious and we found a table near the window with a view. Would recommend.

Staff in the hotel are really nice

In general nice hotel with friendly staff. No restaurant in hotel and not many dinning options.

Nice traditional older facility with a great location and view of the fjord, since there was no cruise ship in port. Staff was very friendly and accommodating, and we especially think Ole is a great ambassador for the property. One complaint would be that the temp in the room was hard to regulate, largely due to the cold breeze leaking through the French doors to the outside. Great food in the restaurant!

Nice hotel at the waterfront of the fjord. Very good breakfast. We stayed 4 days, but the room wasn't cleaned not a single day ! The room is simple.
